“Beating is a sign of affection, cursing (骂)is a sign of love.”

Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern times—with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been—but experts say they still ring true.

Today, it seems, Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre?college military academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way to success.

“Good education doesn’t mean letting your children enjoy privileges, especially our boys.” said Song Wenming, an entrepreneur (企业家)in Jinhua’ East China’s Zhejiang province. “They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future.”

In August, Song sent his 17?year?old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in Pennsylvania. And he is far from alone, even though it takes a lot of money—around $48,000 per year—to send a child to a strict military school.

Statistics show that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies.

A few years ago, there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge. Today, there are 28.“All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families; some of them were spoiled.” said Jennifer Myers, director of marketing and communications at the school.

Song’s only son, Song Siyu, had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school. The teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult.

Now, three months later, he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35 seconds, finishing a meal without looking at his food, and making his bed with precision. He can even take criticism, no matter how unreasonable.

“The training is hard but I know it is good for self?development of individuals.” said Song Siyu. “The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character; they are not personal.”

But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy this year have transferred to other schools.

But for those who stick with it, there is a reward for all the hard work.

1.From the second paragraph, we can know the old Chinese saying ________ .

A. is out of date in modern times

B. is disagreed by rich parents

C. is still worth trusting

D. is deeply believed by better educated parents

2.The underlined sentence means that _________.

A. Song sent his only son to military school，so he feels lonely

B. Song is the only one who sends his child to military school

C. there are other people sending their children to military school besides Song

D. the fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it

3.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. It's likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA.

B. Most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays.

C. Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA.

D. Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.

Ever since you were born, you’ve probably celebrated the anniversary of that day once each year. Would you believe that some people actually celebrate TWICE each year? Not only do they celebrate the anniversary of the day they were born, they also celebrate six months later on their half birthday!

First let’s take a look at how half birthdays are calculated. The first --- and earliest --- is simply to keep the same number of the birth date and add six months to it. For example, if your birthday is January 13, then your half birthday would be on July 13.

Of course, this easy method doesn’t always work, because not all months have the same number of days. For example, an August 30 birthday would become February 30 --- a day that doesn’t exist!

If you want to be really precise, you need to add half the number of days in a year to your birth date. For example, in a normal year, this means adding 182.5 days. In a leap year, you would add 183 days. If this sounds too complicated, don’t worry. There are plenty of websites that will do the work for you!

For starters, consider kids. As they grow, six months can mean huge milestones. It can be a special time to celebrate with them as they grow up, because they grow up all too fast!

Half birthday celebrations can also be great for those people whose regular birthday might be overshadowed by a nearby holiday, such as Christmas. Likewise, kids whose birthdays fall in the summer might enjoy celebrating their half birthday, so that they can share their joy with their friends at school.

Half birthdays aren’t the only special “birthdays” that some people celebrate, though. Adopted children sometimes celebrate both their actual birthday (the day they were actually born) and the day they were adopted. Do you have any other special “birthdays” that you and your family celebrate?

1.The author’s purpose of writing this passage is mainly to tell us ________.

A. what birthday means

B. what half birthday is

C. the kinds of birthdays

D. the history of birthday

2.The author shows us how to calculate half birthdays by ________.

A. offering some practical examples

B. making a list of different numbers

C. comparing a normal year and a leap one

D. telling the difference between birthdays and half birthdays

3.Who are most likely to celebrate half birthdays?

A. People who are not young any longer.

B. People whose half birthday falls in summer.

C. People whose birthday falls near a holiday.

D. People who don’t like their birthdays at all.

4.This passage is taken from a website; which section does it belong to?

A. Science. B. Politics.

C. Hobby. D. Culture.

So your room is a pile of unfinished projects, unsorted papers, a soccer sweater from last fall, and – beneath it all – puzzle pieces and pet food. You catch some old banana peel and dirty socks every time you walk in the door and you can’t see the top of your bed. ‘No baseball until your room is clean!’ your parents say.

Some kids seem to be born tidy. But if you were not, you probably hear ‘clean your room’ and ‘put piles under the bed and into the closet.’ You also know, though, that this kind of cleaning is just a quick fix.

Wouldn’t you like to clean up your room for good? A real clean-up job is not such a monumental task if you learn a few timesaving ‘tricks of trade’.

If you share a room, get your brother or sister to help. Then collect a pile of big boxes, and take a kitchen timer into your room, and you’re ready for the two easy steps that will turn you into a super sorter!

Do a ‘Big Sort’.

Think about what’s in that mess of stuff in your room.

A big job seems smaller when it’s broken into parts. Write different names on the empty boxes to fit the contents of your room. Write ‘Give Away’ on one box for things you don’t want. Draw a big ‘?’ on another box for those things that don’t belong anywhere else.

Set the timer for 60 minutes. Working for just an hour at a time, you won’t feel as if you’re climbing a mountain of messiness. Ready, set, GO! Put letters from friends and unsorted school papers into a ‘Papers’ box. Put the helmet in with ‘Sports Equipment.’ Throw stinky socks and dirty sweatshirts in a laundry basket. Hang up clothes that belong in the closet. Keep going! Pair your shoes and line them up next to your bed (or in your closet, if there is room). Put dirty dishes in the hall to take to the kitchen later. Take a look around. There’s your bed! Dad’s missing hammer! Tuesday’s homework assignment! Things are getting neater. Toss (扔) trash into the wastebasket.

Depending on how messy your room is, this Big Sort could take several sessions. Keep at it!

Plan where things should live.

Handle one of your Big Sort groups at a time. Do the items in your groups already have a home, and they just aren’t in it? Or do they need a ‘place to call home’?

Dirty clothes, for example: if you usually toss them on the floor, put a clothes basket behind your door. Ready, aim… shoot your clothes into the basket. Score!

Store similar supplies in one place. Desk supplies can go into the bottom and lid of an empty egg carton. Put puzzle piece in small empty gift boxes. Keep hobby supplies in plastic bags.

Draw a map of your room to figure out where to put things. Once everything has a home, you can train yourself to put items in their place as soon as you’re done with them. That makes it much easier to keep your room neat.

1.What behavior is regarded as a quick fix?

A. Leaving the soccer jersey on the door.

B. Tossing the old banana peel into the dustbin.

C. Cleaning up the room by hiding everything.

D. Tiding up the room with ‘tricks of trade’.

2.Why does the writer suggest setting a timer while you clean your room?

A. Whatever you haven’t cleaned in an hour is not worth keeping

B. An hour is all the time it takes to clean your entire room.

C. Working for an hour at a time makes a big job seem smaller.

D. Training yourself to put items in their place takes time.[

3.What does the writer say will help you ‘find homes’ for all of your things?

A. Cleaning your kitchen. B. Drawing a map of your room.

C. Throwing away boxes. D. Tossing the unwanted on the floor.

Among my peers, the most common reasons to sit in front are: poor vision, poor hearing, and harder to fall asleep (my main reason).

That’s about it. I’ve sat in the back and I’ve sat in the front, and I’ve seen no difference in how professors treat me. In fact, I sat in the front of my math class and still fell asleep a lot. I went to office hours for that class regularly and asked the professor if it bothered him and he said he understood completely. I put in the work outside the classroom and performed well on exams, and that’s what ends up on the transcript (成绩单).

From my experience, going to office hours regularly, emailing questions that may be beyond the scope of class just out of your own curiosity, and reading ahead of time so you can ask good relevant questions are the best ways to give a professor a good impression. Where I’ve sat in the classroom hasn’t noticeably affected a professor’s opinion of me in the slightest.

Typically, sitting at the front indicates to me that you want to hear everything I say and want to have more one-on-one questioning with me. Sitting in the middle suggests that you want to fit in, and will be better at group work. Sitting in the back usually means that you want to play with your phone. The people in the front seats will often get the highest grades, dropping as the rows go back. Yes, of course, this is a tendency and not a law, and there are exceptions. But I must point out that for some older professors, they actually can’t see the people in the back well.

I have not noticed where to sit has any effect on attentiveness, participation and respectful behavior. I have noticed though, that students who sit in the back row are almost always disrespectful and inattentive. I have not observed any correlation between achievement and seat location, even though when I was a student myself, I usually preferred to sit in the front.

1.According to the author, the best ways to impress professors do NOT include _____.

A. preparing for the class in advance B. asking questions through emailing

C. going to office hours regularly D. sitting in the front in every class

2.What does the word underlined “correlation” in paragraph 5 probably mean?

A. Connection. B. Balance.

C. Difference. D. Separation.

3.What is the author’s opinion of students sitting in the front?

A. They may be better at group work.

B. They may want to stay awake in class.

C. They want to play with their phones.

D. Their grades are always the highest.

4.What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?

A. To persuade students to sit in the front.

B. To analyze the advantages of sitting in the back.

C. To show the effect of seating on study results.

D. To discuss different seat locations in the class.

We all wish we had just a bit more time. Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on.

1.But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter.

Get Out of Bed Earlier

If you normally get up at 7; 30 am, try getting up at 7:00 am. That half-hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you've been meaning to finish. 2.

Do the Important Tasks First

Once you get to work, get the important ones done first （not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones）.You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones.

3.The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won't miss the important ones.

Reduce Interruptions

If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter. Constant interruptions don't just eat up time, they also break your concentration.

When you've got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail. 4.Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation.

A few minutes chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted over the course of a day. When you’re working, work. If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if you’re facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it’s easier to deal with.

A．Stay Focused on Your Work

B．Take Breaks When Necessary

C．If you have an office door, close it

D．If you work like this, you'll usually save time

E．Would you want me to make your day longer?

F．I can't magically make all your days 25 hours long

G．Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start

Films

The Exorcism of Emily Rose

It’s supposedly based on a true story, which stars Jennifer Carpenter as Emily Rose, a country girl who goes away to college and then becomes possessed by the devil. The inspiration for the film came from the story of Anneliese Michel, a supposedly possessed woman who died from starvation after a series of unsuccessful exorcism attempts in 1976.

Children of the Corn

Has that thing ever happened to you where you go on a road trip and stop for gas and realize that you lose your direction off the beaten path and people start looking at you like you’re from the moon? The instance always reminds you of this movie. Walk far into the wilderness and it’s all just Children of the Corn territory.

The Ring

Some people prefer the original Japanese version of this film to the 2002 remake starring Naomi Watts, so if you have time, watch both, but if you don’t, start here. There was a really exciting period in the early 2000s when the film industry made some exciting changes to the usual format of horror movies. This movie helped introduce a transition from monster films to a more psychological approach that relies on expectations more than in-your-face jump scares.

It Follows

This is a movie that’s super fun to approach not knowing much about it, because if you hadn’t already known the fact that it’s a scary movie, you’d be surprised by how things develop as you’re experiencing it for the first time. There are a lot of scares in It Follows that catch you by surprise, which makes it feel refreshing, fun, and horrifying at the same time.

1.Who is Jennifer Carpenter?

A. A woman who died from starvation

B. An actress who acted Emily Rose

C. A girl who was possessed by the devil

D. The author who wrote The Exorcism of Emily Rose

2.If you lose your way near a gas station, you are most likely to think of the film_______.

A. The Exorcism of Emily Rose

B. Children of the Corn

C. The Ring

D. It Follows

3.What special contribution did The Ring make?

A. It introduced fun and horrifying experiences at the same time.

B. It introduced in-your-face jump scares

C. It created a new style of horror movies

D. It was adapted into many Japanese films.

4.How may you feel when watching It Follows?

A. Sad and upset

B. Fun and moved

C. Bored and sleepy

D. Amazed and frightened
